Contents |
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Lam Plai Mat, Mueang Buriram, Nang Rong, Nong Ki and Nong Hong of Buriram Province.
The minor district (King Amphoe) was created on April 1 1992, when the five tambon Chamni, Cho Phaka, Laluat, Mueang Yang and Nong Plong were split off from Nang Rong district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on December 5 1996.[2]
The district is subdivided into 6 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 64 villages (muban). There are no municipal (thesaban) areas, and 6 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
